ExecutionContext inconsistent in API responses.

[jvalkeal]

I ran timestamp-batch app and then checked json responses what UI queries.

If we check below responses, /jobs/executions/1/steps/1 vs. /jobs/executions/1, executionContext is reported

"executionContext": {
  "dirty": true,
  "empty": false,
  "values": [
        {
          "batch.taskletType": "org.springframework.cloud.task.app.timestamp.batch.TimestampBatchTaskConfiguration$1"
        },
        {
          "batch.stepType": "org.springframework.batch.core.step.tasklet.TaskletStep"
        }
  ]
}

"executionContext": {
  "dirty": false,
  "empty": true,
  "values": []
}

Full responses.

@jvalkeal: When you get a chance, can you verify whether if the inconsistency exist? Either way, I don't see it causing harm for the users, though.

Not sure how effectively is this being used and we don't show this at the dashboard as well.
